She completely enjoyed her job as well as the folks she worked with. Those who knew Rosemary would surely say she was the most caring, big hearted person they knew. A fact all of the family members knew quite well. We'll never forget her smile and the kind way she touched us all. We can be thankful that she lived such a full and meaningful life, as a wife, mother, and grandmother to all of us. The solace we share is that she'll be in our hearts and memories forever, and that Rosemary is in a much better place now.
